How to spy on Android without installing Software?

If you have ever wanted to spy on someone, you might have wished for a way to spy on their Android without installing a software. Not many of us are fond of using spying applications either because we are not tech savvy or because it is not convenient to simply grab a phone and install the software. If you are here looking for the answer to this question, you will be glad to know there are a few ways it is possible.

How to spy on Android without the need of installing a software?

Option 1: Android Device Manager

You might already be familiar with this one. This isn’t a perfect spying solution but it supports four functions; track the location of the phone, make it ring, lock the phone and erase the phone’s data.

Every Android device has the Android Device Manager installed by default. It is also known as ‘Find My Device.’ It is pretty simple to use since it is activated in most of the Android devices. No installations are required. All you have to make sure is the target phone is connected to the internet. To access it, you will need the credentials to the Google Account that is connected to Android Device Manager. Let’s see how it works.

Enter the Google Account credentials associated with the Android you want to spy on

The screen will now show you the map, indicating the location of the phone and you will also have the options to ring, lock and erase.

Option 2: Your Timeline by Google

Here is another way of spying on Android without installing a software. This procedure was known as ‘Route History’ but now it is called ‘Your Timeline’ and it works with Google account just like Android Device Manager. For it to work, the target Android device should be connected to the internet and the location option should be enabled. You will also need access to the Google Account credentials of the target device.

Open Google Maps in your browser

Sign in with the Google Account connected to the Android you want to spy on

Click on ‘Menu’ from the top left side of your screen

Click on ‘Your Timeline’

This will show you the timeline of where the target person has traveled.

Wait, here is a better option

The methods mentioned above surely don’t involve the installation of a software but they don’t offer extensive spying on Android. You can only track the location of the android or perform a few functions remotely. If you want to spy on Android and view everything stored on the phone, view text messages, track location, view call logs etc, it is only possible by installing a spying app. Although you will need physical access to the device but it is just for 10 to 15 minutes only. Plus, you can hide the app so that the owner of the Android device doesn’t find out there is a spying app installed on his phone.

Xnspy is a perfect spying app that’s a combination to both basic and advanced spying needs. The procedure below explains how you can use Xnspy to spy on Android:

1. Subscribe to Xnspy for Android. You will receive an email containing the download link to Xnspy, activation code and a guide to set up your Xnspy web account.
